About us

The Munson Family Project is open to all Munson descendants interested in discovering more about their heritage with DNA testing. Both Y and autosomal tests are of interest. All variant spellings are welcome. If your Surname is missing and should be included, we'll be glad to add it. Most Munsons in the USA are either of Scandinavian origin or are descended from Thomas Munson (1612 – 1685) who settled in Connecticutt presumably from Suffolk England see http://www.thomasmunson.org/thomas-munson/ This family's Y is R1b aka R-M269 in the modern nomenclature. Neither male descendant of Thomas Munson in this project has done further SNP testing to look at the deeper origins.
